Magic Johnson calls out the LA Clippers

If it was up to Magic Johnson, he would not have fired Doc Rivers from the LA Clippers.

The Lakers great took to his twitter account to let his voice be heard on the Doc Rivers situation in LA.

I can't believe the LA Clippers fired Doc Rivers and basically blamed him for getting bounced out of the playoffs by the Denver Nuggets.

Magic doesn't see Rivers as the fall guy and thinks the players should be more accountable after there were stretches where both Kawhi Leonard and Paul George disappeared. However, there have been multiple reports the team quit on Rivers and were not in sync with his rotation mixes or defensive play-calling in crucial times of the games.

The Clippers blew a 3-1 series lead and had double digit leads in all three deciding games.

If it was up to Magic, Doc Rivers would still be coaching the Clippers. One problem....it ain't up to Magic.
